Practicing Our Scales

My wife and I used to lead a small group for young adults ⏤ the Friends and Followers group. I often talked about the need to ‘practice our scales.’ That meant returning to a short list of essential statements that would (hopefully) guide our formation. The idea was that if we really worked at practicing these ‘scales,’ they would become embodied. Lately, I have been studying Hania Rani’s piano genius. I share an example below. Imagine if our walk with Christ, representing his kingdom in the world, were as practiced and pure as Hania Rani’s fingers on the piano keys.
